Hemming with Lace
Most of the popular kinds of lace
edging and insertion can be applied
with the foot hemmer. It is an excellent
way to trim children's clothes and to
finish lingerie hems.
Lace Applied over Hem
Fold and start hem in usual way.
Starting about 1 inch down from
end of lace, place selvage under
the needle, the lower the needle
to hold lace firmly.
Raise hemmer foot slightly and
slip lace under back part of foot.
Stitch slowly, guiding fabric with
right hand and lace with left
hand. Take care not to stretch
the lace.
Lace Applied under Hem
When using lace underneath the fold of
a hem, the procedure is the same as
when making a hemmed seam (page
33). Slip the lace in from the left as you
would the second piece of fabric. This
method is used where a neat finish is
desired on both sides of the material.
